1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Electrical storm (ES) is a critical and potentially life-threatening cardiac rhythm disorder. It is characterized by the presence of three or more distinct episodes of sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) that necessitate appropriate termination. ES may occur in the setting of acute myocardial infarction or following myocardial reperfusion. An urgent treatment approach is necessary for better outcomes. We represent a case of a 64-year-old patient who presented with sudden chest pain and an episode of palpitations related to non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), who has undergone percutaneous coronary intervention of the stenotic epicardial artery, but subsequently experienced an ES in the absence of stent thrombosis. ES presented in the form of sustained monomorphic VT that required synchronous direct current cardioversion, anti-arrhythmic drugs, deep sedation, and endotracheal intubation with a favorable course, with the patient being discharged after 14 days hospital stay. The practitioner should be mindful of the potential occurrence of ES following myocardial revascularization and should tailor the management approach.
